BIOGRAPHY
Turntable Terranova are DJ Fetisch and graffiti writer Kaos, both from Berlin. They are DJs at the much respected WMF, Berlin. Fetisch, DJ since the early 80ties, was resident-DJ in Berlin’ s cult-clubs Dschungel, Zest, ChaCha and others. In 1987 he went to New York, where he was spinning tunes at “Danceteria”, “Tunnel” and other venues. End of the Eighties he moved to London! In swinging London he was djing every saturday night upstairs at the “Wag”-club and organized special parties. During his stay in London he met the Stereo MCs and recorded a few tracks for their Gee Street Label: AXIS ( 12″-inch – which was recently sampled by Björk’ s for her latest LP “Post”), the track “Motherland” for the Stereo MCs-LP, parts of the ISIS-LP with Lyn Q. and X-Clan, and more.
After all this experiences, Fetisch did make a three years break and turned into underground-fashion, where he met Kaos (Dennis Kaun). Kaos is a hyperactive multitalent and one of the most pupular european graffiti writers. He started spraying 1984 (signed under his name Kaos) and was a semi-proffessional-skateboarder. One part of Kaos graffiti at the Berlin Wall was the official gift from the gourvernment to Mr. President Bill Clinton during his visit in Berlin. Kaos has rebuilt another part of his writings for an American businessman and graffiti-collector, who wanted that imitation of this part of The Wall.) Since then, Kaos has done many exhibitions in New York, Lissabon, London, Oklahoma, and he was selling parts of the Walls to galleries and academies of arts in Colorado, California, Tokyo and Monte Carlo. He has also designed logos for different companies like Adidas or Stüssy. Last but not least Kaos acted on behalf of the Berlin Senat, teaching young prisoners graffiti-writing in workshops. Kaos worked also as a stylist for foto-sessions, and he is still creating his own T-Shirt collections, as well as organizing parties (for example: I-D-party 1995 WMF Berlin or I-D party 12. Nov. 1995 Electric Lounge Munich). Turntable Terranova involves also Marco Meister, a Latinamerican programmer / engineer and constant partner in crime!
Turntable Terranova music is a mutant! It is turntables new land with samples, elements of electro, hiphop, analog-sounds, surface-noises, and abstract-ideas!
